The band that she formed with her brother Anthony is no longer active; in 2010, she and her brother were based in Europe and writing electronic dance music. Now she's a resident of Miami, FL.[4]

Although Hewitt had a musical background in rock music, she released her debut single in 2007 in the field of progressive house: "Carry Me Away" was a collaboration with British DJ Chris Lake.

The single "Waiting", which she published with Dash Berlin in 2009, was ranked 25th in the Belgian singles chart and No. 1 on the Global Trance Charts. In Armin van Buuren's radio show A State of Trance the single was elected by the audience with 2,109 votes as the second best song of the year 2009.[6] At the International Dance Music Awards 2010 "Waiting" was awarded as best HiNRG/Euro Track. She was nominated twice in the category Best Trance Track with "Waiting" and "Not Enough Time".[7]

Her debut album, Burn the Sky Down, was released in 2012. Since then, she has had various collaborations with DJs such as Armin van Buuren, Cosmic Gate, Gareth Emery, Aly & Fila, Dash Berlin, 3lau, Schiller, and Andrew Rayel, which have been placed in Trance charts around the world.

In 2016, her song "Restless Hearts", produced alongside Mark Sixma, received a 138-bpm remix from Ben Nicky. The remixed version was crowned "Future Favorite" on A State of Trance episode 767.[8]

In 2020, Emma Hewitt joined forces with Ilan Bluestone and Maor Levi, forming the progressive trance supergroup Elysian and announcing her debut on the Anjunabeats music label.[9] The trio released their first single "Moonchild", preparing the audience for their first EP, named Water, which was released on September 18.
